A missing child from Las Vegas has been found safe in Kansas, leading to the arrest of the child’s mother. The 5-year-old child was reported missing by his father, who had not seen him for over a month. The child was believed to be in danger as his mother, Kalise Welch, had a history of drug abuse and was known to be transient.
Authorities were able to locate the child in Kansas, where he was found safe and unharmed. Welch was arrested and is facing charges of child endangerment and custodial interference. The child has been placed in protective custody while the investigation continues.
The father of the child expressed relief and gratitude that his son had been found safe. He credited the quick response and diligent work of law enforcement for the safe recovery of his son. The FBI assisted in the search for the missing child, working alongside local law enforcement agencies.
The case serves as a reminder of the importance of reporting missing children promptly and working together with law enforcement to ensure their safe return. It also highlights the dangers of custodial interference and the importance of protecting children from harm.
As the investigation continues, authorities are urging anyone with information about the case to come forward. The child’s well-being is the top priority, and efforts are being made to ensure that he receives the care and support he needs during this difficult time.
